Re: Vintage picture thread

I saw two different sets of FORD hub caps. Really need to have some Chevy caps laying around just in case thats happens again. lol.

Re: Vintage picture thread

I love these pictures as it reminds me of how keeping things simple was better than all the new(supposed to be better) things we have today. Everything now is built with a service life mentality instead of back then being built to be repaired and last forever.

:agree: :metal: Things today are engineered to withstand a specified numbers of years before wearing/breaking down. We are that advanced. I'll keep my truck thanks.

In 77 or so one of my older brothers talked him into trading it on a 73 or 74 black with red interior Cheyenne super 10 with a 454 auto loaded, leaf rear. It ran like he'll but obviously drank gas and was not as good of a truck overall as the 72 and didn't ride as well. I will see if I can find photos next time I go back home.

There's already a thread on ads & literature. Plenty of "vintage" in there.
